Quiet

It's quiet at my house.  On Wednesday, M went to spend a few days with K, and today she and a roommate are heading back to school.

It's not that it was noisy in our home for the two weeks M was with us.  Most of the time she stayed in her room -- she slept A LOT.  She also watched a lot of Hulu and stuff on her laptop and talked or texted with her bf.  In some ways it was as if she really wasn't even here.

In the mornings she would run with G, take a shower and go back to bed.  I usually didn't see her until late afternoon.  We went shopping a few times, but that was the extent of our interaction.  All in all it was a really weird Christmas break.

I was looking forward to M's time at home because she would be someone for me to talk with . . . except she never really talked to me.  The conversations and time together I was anticipating never materialized.  Sadly, it seems she is becoming more and more like G: distant, insular, wrapped up in her own interests and concerns. I wonder if she's like this with others, or is it just me?
